Florida Democratic Congresswoman Frederica Wilson and her hat were at Homestead detention facility today, where she offered up a fun little policy proposal: shutting down and prosecuting people who make fun of members of Congress online.

"Those people who are online, making fun of members of congress are a disgrace."
"There is no need for anyone to think that is unacceptable."
"We're going to shut them down and work with whoever it is to shut them down and they should be prosecuted. " —@RepWilson pic.twitter.com/h577vW9pRk

Her ideas are intriguing and we wish to subscribe to her newsletter.
“There’s no need for anyone to think that’s unacceptable.” Okay. Done.

😂 I think it was: “There’s no need for anyone to think. That’s unacceptable.”

Wilson’s just chock-full of brilliance. We’re not sure how she’s able to contain it so well.
It's against the law to make fun of Members of Congress online, says Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-HatsRUs) https://t.co/HAYjDZcOkF

Rep. Wilson, who is calling here for an end to freedom of political speech, is elected from a district that never comes up in the Democrat's tales of gerrymandering horror. https://t.co/V7Dy1TUidc

.@RepWilson's right that federal law prohibits threatening a member of Congress (and any federal official and their family). Making fun of them, however? Not so much. https://t.co/G1VIDJeZKL

Mocking an idiot congresswoman like Frederica Wilson is not only not a crime, but one could argue that it’s actually our civic duty. We’re not about to stop now.
That ain’t how free speech works lady. This is America. We know you don’t like the constitution and the rights it protects for American citizens. But you do have to abide by and recognize them.

She’s gonna prosecute like a billion people? Maybe we should prosecute members of congress who make up stuff and lie.

Oh, hey, and speaking of things a crazy person would say:
Need a 20 Tweet Kevin Kruse screed explaining why Frederica Wilson is right that it is illegal to make fun of Members of Congress online.

Can’t wait.
Start prosecuting people for mockery and that might be the beginning of the least of their worries.
Florida sure knows how to pick them.
Here’s her district:
Ethnicity
7.39% White
48.7% Black
1.21% Asian
39.34% Hispanic
0.32% Native American
3.47% other
Cook PVI D+34

With any luck, she’ll be toast in the next election.................
Lol. Your post (and Ms. Wilson) reminded me of the railroad acronym FRED which is the modern replacement for cabooses: Flashing Rear End Device.
Alinsky Rule 5
“Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”
Absolutely-friggin-NOT!!
If the First Amendment and Freedom of Speech apply to ANYTHING in American society, it is the God-given right call your elected idiot a genuine peckerhead in public and out loud.
You don’t understand what is going on in this country right now. There is a war going on that the Deep State is going to lose. What I am stating is accurate. She is in full blown panic as many of these crooks are. If you only follow the MSM it is understandable to have your opinion but it is not accurate.
It looks like it needs a comma.
Between Vice and Chair.
Sorry BLM er, we have first amendment and second amendment rights to protect the first amendment!
I can understand why this testament to mockery should come out so strongly against the maliciously mocking masses. On the other hand, if not to mock, why would one speak of her? Really, between this and Jackson-Lee, what is not to mock? WTF Texas? (I know, Austin,...but still...)
/mocking
I disagree, but life is like that.
What the crazy hat lady means by “proscecuted” is KILLED.
Keep us posted how she interacts with you.
“They want to jail us for stuff we SAY..?”
Exactly why it is time to stop “taking the high road” and start cracking skulls in kind. Why would they stop if no one is stopping them? It has become obvious they only understand violence.
What they want is to KILL us.
One of these women is in prison for fraud. The other one is free to continue her life of crime.
But, but, they’re so mockable.
Let’s eliminate the entire Constitution to please the Democrats. (/s)
I dont have a problem mocking her to her face. People with IQs under 80 should not be allowed to be in congress
